Staff Benefits

18 July 2018

We don’t just say that people are at the heart of our business. We show it. This month we’ve continued to evolve our existing portfolio of benefits. We’ve talked about it on a number of occasions, but the mental health of our team is as important as their physical wellbeing. As well as regular external speakers, initiatives such as #FitFeb, buddy programme and flexible working hours, we’ve now introduced an Employee Assistance Programme (EAP). Through our EAP, people have access to advice on: finance, mental/physical wellbeing, employment, legal issues etc. The team simply call the EAP helpline which is 24/7, free and completely confidential.

Culture is something that sets the agency apart and evolving benefits – whether it’s a cycle to work scheme or healthcare, looking after people and helping them to save money, is a core objective.

For the last five years, a bespoke voucher book has gone down a storm, including a free duvet day, free coffee for a week or even an afternoon to volunteer with your chosen charity! It genuinely is a refreshing approach to staff.
